Well done TG… Marathon does change things, my 02 water heaters only had 1 shut off valve on each heater, so I assume they tied the webasto and engine coolant lines together prior to the water heater bay. My 04 is like yours, 4 cut-offs an in and out each for both engine and webasto. I turn them off, scalding water is not fun from engine temp coolant.

Mine appear to be fiberglass. Lower half stainless.

There were 3 reminders sent via Paypal and finally an e-mail from me to you on 9/13 advising you that we were canceling your reservation since payment wasn’t received.
On September 14th you sent me an e-mail asking to be cancelled.
I’m confused, are you in or out? If you’re in, I’ll send another Paypal Invoice.

Don`t have actual axle weights, but nothing has been added since original manufacture which had 315`s. Should probably run to Luv`s and get weights.

2 flashes then 5 flashes = code 25 = “No Codes”
Excerpt from DDEC manual below.
To read codes, use the diagnostic data reader or depress and hold the diagnostic request switch with the ignition ON, engine at idle or not running. Active codes will be flashed on the SEL. Inactive codes will be flashed on the CEL. The cycle will repeat until the operator releases the diagnostic request switch. Flash codes, descriptions, and SAE faults are listed in Table 5-1.
CEL = Check Engine Light
SEL = Stop Engine Light
Maybe… the “diagnostic request switch” is on??????
Just maybe……

Tom wont put the slide in, he disabled the switch the other day for fear of someone pushing it and activating the slide.
Heck, Sunday he went to the dump station with it out !!!!!! I guess he is going to drive all the way home with it out. Can you stay in the right lane all the way to FL.
He had Jeff put some LED flashing lights on the corners the other day, what the H@$&@ are those for.

Why do they do that?
I’ve noticed some truck stops (like the new Love’s near Sheboygan, WI has wide yellow line to the drivers know how far to pull up to. We’ve gotten into the habit of when the truck in front of us at the pump starts to move forward, Cathie jumps out and makes sure he or she get ahead far enough so I can get the nozzel to the fuel filler in the middle of the coach and we leave enough room for the truckers to pass in front of us as they go back and forth to the building. She says all of them have been very nice about it. When the truck has pulled up far enough and I’m up far enough I toot the horn so she knows when to tell him or her to stop.

Click on my user name.
If you want to include anything else in your email, such as age of tire, circumstances relating to finding the separation or failure include that if you want.

Yes, you could have made them available as an article.

Anyone going to be at Brainerd International Raceway this weekend for the drags?

I’ve been told too its not good to turn off a refrigerator. Whether its an old wives tale, a rumor started by the power company, or a fact I don’t know.
Having a Liberty the vintage as ours, I presume you have Vitricor surfaces on the custom cabinetry. I’ve been told (by Jon W … so its a fact) that temperature extremes are the enemy of Vitricor. So I have the Cruise-Airs set at 82 degrees in the summer and try to keep the interior temp above 45 in the winter. Obviously keep an interior temp of 82 in Lake Havasu in the summer could get a little expensive for you.
Keeping the door of the refrigerator closed dramatically reduces the load on the refrigerator cooling system.
When you upgraded to the new refrigerator did you ditch the modified sine wave inverters for the more modern, state of the industry full sine wave inverters? I’m also told (by Jon W and others who should know) that the newer refrigerators like the FSW electricity better than the old MSW juice.
Isn’t it amazing how long that old Amana refrigerator lasted? Going down the road bouncing around, etc.

Best route is I40 all the way to Kingman AZ then 93 to Vegas

Marius, it was directly below where the 1/4″ line for the bleed off valve goes into the air source from the pump, just above the pressure gauge in my pictures above. Very easy to replace, just make sure you pay attention to the arrow on the check valve, and install it in the right direction as to air flow.
I bought a check valve from a local Fleetpride truck shop, it was actually for a brake system made by Bendix, but works great.

I have and use a reader to pinpoint ABS light codes. So far every cause for the ABS light to come on, even when it is intermittent, has been a sensor and every time a slight tap on the end of the sensor has corrected the fault.
The reader is part of the Nexus software and the convenience of having it tell me which specific sensor is the cause of the problem has made the purchase of the reader worth every penny.
I bought all my readers from ebay with DDEC specific software, and this last one had the bonus of having ABS software.

Ron, I made my post speaking about maximum loads to put a potential hazard or power issue in perspective.
Just keep in mind if you push the 50 amp service to its limits then any additional loads imposed on the 20 or 30 amp receptacles may exceed the current capacity of the wires feeding the pedestal.
I do not write the UL standards for temporary power outlets, nor control how the products are used so once a box or pedestal is shipped we presume these are installed in a fashion to protect not only the box but the system feeding power to the box. We have no control over the installations. The scenario I described is less likely if the RV park has installed the power outlets using “home runs” where each box gets its power from a main panel and each box has a 50 amp breaker at that main panel. If that is the case you cannot exceed the current carrying capacity of the wires.
But it is legal in some jurisdictions to “loop feed” power to the power outlets meaning the main panel has a large breaker, such as a 400 amp breaker, and then it feeds power to the first pedestal, then from that to the next, and to the next and so on. If your usage was 80 amps and you were at the last pedestal in the run the RV park could experience serious problems that would not even trip the breaker. I will hope Fred chimes in because he can elaborate if necessary.
